If you’ve come here for forgiveness, you trip has been in vain
I don’t think that I could put myself through all that hurt again.
I don’t need to hear your reasons; your explanations are too late,
They could have soothed my pain a while ago but now they irritate.
I don’t want a resurrection, let’s leave that stone unturned
Don’t talk about the fire we had - remember one of us got burned
Don’t tell me that you need me, claim I’m the only one
Don’t take me to that place where all my pain came from
Don’t tease me with your laughter or entangle me with lips
Don’t trace desire upon my chest with those soft fingertips
Don’t say you know I love you and that you’ve always loved me too
Don’t say it, please don’t say just because I know it’s true.
